Engine Mount Paint

[Joe Fisher]

I am rebuilding a 283 for my 61. Does the engine mount between the pump and block get painted orange black?
Thanks.

Joe -

The engine mount bracket (and the water pump) was in place when the engine was painted - it's the same Chevy orange color as the rest of the engine. The vertical mount through-bolts are NOT painted.
